Comments
Comments: We had a nice meander through the woods on all the trails, with some tough climbing and descending on the steep parts. There was a lot of mud and standing water on Hancock Notch Trail and Cedar Brook Trail. We managed to get through it ok, but needed to do some leaps and bounds to do so. I regretted wearing my new boots, but I guess that's what they're made for!
